A tad intense according to some; don’t see a problem with that when it comes to social justice, health & wellbeing. The personal is political and interdependent

.@Mark_Butler_MP pick up the phone and ask Biocelect and @Novavax to participate in the Special Access Scheme. *It Exists for a Reason.* This should have been done before the XBB & JN1 application withdrawals. Stop leaving people behind. Work with the states please. @VicGovDH

😮I want to smash something. I've just stumbled across the official NHS coding guidance for U07.3 - 'Personal history of Covid-19' - and it left me on the floor. 🚨When paired with the data on the number of times it is currently used, it is a huge unknown national scandal.

Tern is single handedly putting out more public health knowledge than the world's entire collective public health departments. He shares the data, with knowledge, and connective insight. He should be getting journalism awards. But he does it here, for free, in the hopes we see.
Eye problems are one of the most common after-effects of covid infections, and one of the most common issues of Long Covid - but they're not talked about much. This is part two of my thread working through eye conditions that have become *much more common* since Covid struck.

Effectiveness of natural infection in preventing reinfection with the JN.1 variant! ➡️ The overall effectiveness of previous infection in preventing reinfection with JN.1 was estimated at only 1.8% (95% CI: -9.3-12.6%)!

There is absolutely no point in spending money on installing air filtration and ventilation systems to stop a virus that is spread by droplets. It's only beneficial in stopping an airborne virus. And yet the WHO, the UN, the American, French, Spanish, Australian, Canadian,

@JEChalmers @AustralianLabor They are rolling out Nuvaxovid JN1 AGAIN in the US, Treasurer. And they got the XBB version. Japan is manufacturing an update. Singapore deployed XBB and JN1 Novavax AFTER withdrawn from TGA evaluation. It's wrong to leave people behind Mr Chalmers. It's awful. Can you see that?

@Novavax WHY don't we have ANY version of updated Nuvaxovid in Australia? Please advise the Exact Reason JN1 not being evaluated by the TGA. It is dangerous & inequitable that mRNA vax medically intolerant Australians can't stay up to date. #LeftBehind What Will It Take?

Confirmed today that @VICNISS_CC is no longer recording hospital acquired covid infections (HAIs). Completely bewildering abandonment of their primary reason for existence: to reduce HOSPITAL ASSOCIATED INFECTIONS. No data? No problem? Nothing to see here. https://t.co/dkvx1mlgOv

@JeromeAdamsMD Now do the truth around spread - “Covid is airborne and you must wear a well-sealed N95 respirator or better in all indoor spaces to protect yourself adequately. You cannot dine indoors, sing in your choir, hang out at a concert unmasked w/o a high chance of catching Covid.

Huh. The TGA page updated. But of course, it's not @Novavax related. It never is! Let the record show that for the minority of Australians unlucky enough to be medically intolerant of mRNA Covid vaccines, our procurement program is 1. Inequitable 2.Not Fit for Purpose

@karen_kelowna If masks didn't work then a whole load of these workers would be dying everyday. The correct quality respirator that's fit tested works. Period. If they didn't then why are they mandatory, that's right legally required and mandated in many workplaces? The list below is not
